Mother’s Day – The Gift You Shouldn’t Give

Published by violetteb at 10:47 pm under Does the Shoe Fit? Edit This

We have a week to go till Mother’s Day and while we can’t always find the gift that keeps on giving, we want to select something mom will appreciate. Oh you could get flowers, candy, a day out for brunch or another special outing, but why not settle for a gift that Wal-Mart thinks would be just the perfect thing.

Yes, Wal-Mart is making sure that you don’t miss out on the opportunity to consider the Wii Fit game for your Mother’s Day purchase. Yes, give your mom that something special and tell her she is fat when you do it. So she really feels your love leave the $89.74 sticker on the box when you give her the gift. If you are feeling extra sentimental give her the free $10 online gift card that Wal-Mart gives you for pre-ordering Wii Fit. She may find the initiative to get her butt to Wal-Mart to buy some exercise clothes while she remembers how special you are.

If you don’t think you can insult your mother enough with the Wii Fit, Wal-Mart will help add insult to injury by asking you to wait for the game to hit the shelves on May 19th…a week after Mother’s Day. Hopefully your mother will still love you a week after Mother’s Day.

I’m thinking I’m not going to shop Wal-Mart for Mother’s Day, how about you?

    That was pretty funny, Violette! LOL!

    But, that being said, I REALLY want that game, so if I got a certificate that said it had been reserved/purchased in advance, I would be flipping cartwheels. (Except, I would probably hurt myself if I actually did a cartwheel and scar my son for life…LOL)

    Wally World, LOL.

    Yes Brenda, but the mom should really should own a Wii, and perhaps given a hint. LOL. And Wal-Mart should have really made sure they were available by Mother’s Day…my gosh isn’t there anything else in their warehouse they could sell?
